Administrator resetting passwords

    I’m not sure if I am missing a setting somewhere on WordPress Multiuser. How do administrators of a blog change passwords for contributors/ authors? When I go into to look as an administrator it doesn’t allow this as an option as far as I can tell. I can do it as Super administrator, however we need the administrators to have these rights.
    Thanks in advance for any help or suggestions on this!

    Go to Network Admin -> Users. Change there.

    Admins can’t do it, because the users aren’t per site but per network, and that would suck if admin A could reset the password for Admin B, who HAPPENED to be a user on Admin A’s site.

    I understand in most situations that is the best option. Is there a plugin or something that would allow us to create a role that could change passwords without making them superadmin?

    Nope.
